we like the density and the better use of land. this is one that we don't see very often and i know how difficult ideas of increased height and density are on the west side of san francisco. this is a ground-breaking project. when we hear ideas being talked about about zero energy or water, this is outside of the type of projects we review which is something that we do, we review a lot of residential projects which have come before us. this is really innovative. i will freely confess when the study was first proposed, i was nervous and perhaps a little dismayed. i thought that this would slow things down. having seen this and heard the presentation, this is a terrific tool for giving us the understanding of this project in the context of southwest city. we think that this points to the direction of san francisco and i hope he will follow this closely because the success will fall on how closely this is integrated with transit. >> the last speaker. >> i live in one of the very first blocks in parker said to be torn down and i'm extr
